Let’s face it: None of us really like to do chores around the house. Right, moms? But at a certain age, our kids are old enough to start lending a hand with the housework. Not only does them picking up after themselves lessen the load a little bit for us parents, but it aids in their overall development as it teaches our kids responsibility.
